Lovely family holiday in this well appointed property
Property is fantastic, it's nice and spacious and with everything you need to live home away from home.
TV with some English channels, reasonable Wi-Fi although I found that the 4G signal was more than adequate and as my plan includes unlimited data I used that to keep bandwidth for the children to use.
Located in a nice spot, just a few minutes walk from everything. The beach is fantastic, and climbing the large sand dune a real challenge for all of us except my youngest son who ran up and down it a few times.
We were a touch unlucky with the weather, and during our 2 week stay approximately 50% of the time it was hazy or cool and with occasional bouts of drizzle. In this regard though I think we just had very bad luck.
Nazare is recommended and much more tourist like vs that os Sao Martinho, when the kids need a little something else, there are numerous beach rides and playparks at Nazare which ours (8 and 10 years old), enjoyed.
We didn't have a car, and found getting around no problem. The owner put us in touch with a local taxi firm and we used them during our stay as well as for airport transfers. Would use again should we return in the future.
Owner of property is excellent. And made the whole rental process easy. There was also lots of information provided which was useful.
Top tip : we missed the fact you need to call the property agents upon landing, so we had to wait after being dropped off. Entirely our fault.
Thanks again Philip, it's been a pleasure.
